26. Ukuba ke sithe, Lwaphuma ebantwini, soyika abantu; kuba bonke bebambe ukuthi uYohane ungumprofeti.
27. Bamphendula uYesu bathi, Asazi.Wathi naye kubo, Nam ke andinixeleli ukuba ndizenza ngagunya lini na ezi zinto.
28. Nithini na ke nina? Umntu wayenabantwana ababini; weza kowokuqala wathi, Mntwana wam, yiya kusebenza namhla esidiliyeni sam.
29. Waphendula ke yena wathi, Andiyi; ke wabuya wazohlwaya, waya.
30. Weza nakowesibini, wathetha kwangokunjalo. Waphendula ke yena wathi, Ndiyaya, nkosi; akaya.
31. Nguwuphi na kwabo bobabini owenza ukuthanda kukayise? Bathi kuye, Ngowokuqala.Athi kubo uYesu, Inene ndithi kuni, Bayaniphangela ke ukungena ebukumkanini bukaThixo ababuthi berhafu namahenyukazi.
32. Ngokuba uYohane weza kuni ngendlela yobulungisa, anakholwa nguye; kodwa bákholwa nguye bona ababuthi berhafu namahenyukazi; ke nina, nakukubona oko, anibuyanga nizohlwaye, ukuze nikholwe nguye.
33. Yivani omnye umzekeliso. Bekukho umninindlu othile owatyala isidiliya, wasibiyela ngothango, wemba kuso isixovulelo seediliya, wakha inyango, waqeshisa ngaso kubalimi, wahambela kwelinye.
34. Kuthe ke lakusondela ixesha leziqhamo, wathuma abakhonzi bakhe kubalimi abo, ukuya kwamkela iziqhamo zaso.
35. Besuka abalimi babathabatha abakhonzi bakhe, bathi omnye bamtyabula, omnye bambulala, nomnye bamgibisela ngamatye.
36. Wabuya wathuma abanye abakhonzi, bebaninzi kunabokuqala, benjenjalo nakubo.
37. Uthe ke kamva wathuma kubo unyana wakhe, esithi, Baya kumhlonela yena unyana wam.
38. Bathe ke bakumbona unyana abalimi, batshono ukuthi, Lo yindlalifa; yizani simbulale, sihlale nelifa lakhe.
39. Bamthabatha, bamkhuphela ngaphandle kwesidiliya, bambulala.
40. Xa athe weza ngoko umninisidiliya, uya kwenza ntoni na kwabo balimi?
